and yet somehow you are also against giving subpoena power to the National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling
how does that work?
maybe you're really a double agent for Obama's commie agenda and all your inane ranting about Obama intentionally collapsing the system is just a ruse to make the whole idea look utterly ridiculous so no one will take it seriously
so far your plan is working perfectly
kudos to you comrade
-
My guess would be, BP's agreement to give up billions to the government fund was done with the acceptance that no more press be allowed to film the area. It's damage control by BP and i'm sure other oil companies, they don't want anymore images sullying their name or the name of big oil so they've tightened the screws on the white house. This is the democracy we live in and have lived in for decades.
-
well our Supreme Court has said the corporations are people and I guess foreign corporations are people too.
So, foreign corporate "persons" seem to have more power that the actual human citizens of the country
seems like corporate persons (even foreigners and by definition - non-citizens)actually get more rights than actual human persons and somehow are immune from our investigation by our press as well
I wonder why that is?

No one takes him serious anyway. Poor chap. All the ranting and raving he does and people simply dismiss it as they would do an elderly aunt with Alzhiemers disease talking about her imaginary children.
Give him a smile. A little "tee-hee" and just wait for his next little bullshit out burst.

Exactly.

Exactly.
if thats true the Republicans must hate it even more
more likely blanket statements like that are just complete bullshit

I'm pretty sure 333 has some actual emotional or mental problems
there are plenty of borderline people walking around who haven't committed any crimes or anything and can sort of function in the world but when you talk with them you quickly realize they are as crazy as a shithouse rat.

Amazing to get this overly long winded rant from Anderson cooper... If only he spent as much time covering REAL NEWS as opposed to the ambulance chasing he normally does he would seem more credible. The theatrics both he and CNN deliver is more poor entertainment than anything else.

No, I said we should investigate both BP and your hero obama for their negligence after the oil is cleaned up and the mess taken care of. the freaking well is not even capped yet.
So good diversion asswipe. Now you can see that Obama is as bad as Bush, if not worse. Must be hard to stomach no?

Lurker - you are not exactly a beacon or oracle of intelligence, and that's being nice.
As for this clip, it speaks for itself. Obama = Bush, but worse.

Bro - with all due respect - you are a complete moron if you think AC's reporting on the cover up and govt regs now banning reporters from covering the spill and doing everything to hamper their efforts is not real news.

maybe you supported an investigation on another thread but on this thread linked below you seem to be against it:

right now, yes, since all efforts from all congresspeople, agencies, etc should be on stopping the spill, and getting the mess cleaned up.
After we get the well capped and the spill cleaned up, investigate everyone, including BP and Obama.

you know we can do more than one thing at a time
the people on the commission (whoever they are) aren't going to be the ones to solve the problem of the spill
better to investigate ASAP rather than letting memories fade, evidence destroyed and political will compromised (the Repubs are already busy apologizing to BP and blocking subpoenas)
-
Fine, have a commission, although obama campaigned against them.
Most of these things never accomplish a damn thing and far more will be discovered in litigation proceedings in trial court than this nonsense.

All it will do is waste millions of dollars to draw some vague and obscure conclusion that neither proves nor accomplishes anything .

Coming from someone as delusional and stupid as yourself, that statement means nothing. Just like the rest of your posts.

(Credit: CBS News) The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is blocking certain websites from the federal agency's computers, including halting access by staffers to any Internet pages that contain a "controversial opinion," according to an internal email obtained by CBS News.
The email was sent to all TSA employees from the Office of Information Technology on Friday afternoon.
It states that as of July 1, TSA employees will no longer be allowed to access five categories of websites that have been deemed "inappropriate for government access."
The categories include:
• Chat/Messaging
• Controversial opinion
• Criminal activity
• Extreme violence (including cartoon violence) and gruesome content
• Gaming
The email does not specify how the TSA will determine if a website expresses a "controversial opinion."
There is also no explanation as to why controversial opinions are being blocked, although the email stated that some of the restricted websites violate the Employee Responsibilities and Conduct policy.
The TSA did not return calls seeking comment by publication time.

take off your tin foil hat 333
many large companies (and small ones too) block internet access and various other progrems such as IM . I have many friends who work at banks (for example) where they block things as benign as access to hotmail
-
What qualifies as a "controversial opinion"?

who cares?
Any business or organization can block access to the internet if they want to
happens every day in businesses and organizations all over the country
if people want to surf the web or play games, etc... they can do it on their own time

I agree 100% straw, but this seems to be extremely subjective based on the view of the "powers that be".
I am a free speech fanatic and would never want any speech banned whatsoever.
and why are they banning websites re: "crime"?
Wouldnt the TSA maybe want their employees investigating ways criminals get stuff on board the planes etc?

Just to be clear...
We're now pissed off that GOVT EMPLOYEES being paid OUR TAXPAYER DOLLARS aren't allowed to chat, surf porn, read violent comics, play online video games, or engage in any criminal acts online, while at work?
You're somehow pissed about this? Holy fvck, they shouldn't be allowed to play on google or ebay either. THEYRE AT WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just texted a friend who works for the biggest bank in the country and GetBig.com is blocked on his computer.
I'm sure any TSA employee who needs access to certain parts of the internet to do his job will have that access.
You're bitching about something that's completely common and happens everyday all over the country

It should be consistent. If the Drudge Report is blocked, so should HP, DU , ETC.
BTW - I did not see porn on that list. ;D ;D

if I ran a company with lots of employees, they could visit the corporate website, and any sites immediately related to their jobs. If they had time to kill, they can visit our online trainnig manual and get better at their jobs.
We're mad the govt is stopping waste here... unreal.

Ha ha asswipe.
Leading economists are talking about a coming depression, the business roundtable is in revolt, UE is at 16.6% according to the U6 and being massaged to protect Dear Leader, Gulf Oil spill is a mess, Obama begging Gen. Betrayus to save his communist ass from defeat, et al.
You want more examples of failure of your Boy Wonder messiah or do you simply want to hurl nonsensical insults at me to deflect from the failure you support?
-
Are leading economists talking about docs walking off their jobs? About the nation having to go the DMV for health care? About the End of Days scenario with the jobless swarming the streets and chaos erupting by the minute? Are they talking about that? Or is it just you?
Let me know when THEY are discussing it. Then I might lend some credibility to it. But when it is YOU discussing it, there is no credibility to be had.
I hardly view the board Crytalian possessing anything other than bullshit, hyperbole, and whining as worth listening to.
Carry on with the crying though.

Isn't this your typical response?
[crying] Did you read blah blah blah...some other bullshit thread[/crying]
[whining]Did you watch blah blah blah some crappy video..[/whining]
Your answer is to attempt to deflect to another thread?
Are you saying those economic experts talked about docs leaving their jobs, DMV offering health care, and jobless zombies are being discussed in the White Castle thread? Is that it?
"Hysterical"

Thank you. Gave over - you lose.

Hard to say I lose when you have been exposed once again as a whining bullshit artist on here.
::)
But hey, only you have to cope with your own reality as miserable as it is. So whatever you have to do outside of professional help, I'm all for it.

Oh really oh gay one?
The CFO/CEO from White Castle claiming ObamaCare will cause it to close stores and lay off people is hysterics from me?
The CEO of many IHOPS saying the same thing is whining?
-
Are you back to the gay stuff? I think you secretly want me to be queer. Your attraction is a bit creepy I have to say. Unfortunately for you, if I were queer like you, I would only be attracted to men. And that rules you out crybaby.

So nothing to say about the White Castle or IHOP matter wherein the companies are saying ObamaCare is going to close down stores, result in less employees, etc ?
Figures.
GAME OVER - YOU LOSE.
-
Ha ha asswipe.
LOL @ the use of the word asswipe. Always makes me smile.
-
Your only defense for calling out your daily bullshit, hyperbole and whining is to resort to "gay" remarks, but yet.. I lose?
::)
Excellent example of your delusions and typical bullshit.
-
So much for transparency.

Again -
No defense of the WH in this story - FAIL
Refusal to read White Castle story - FAIL
When it comes to debating actual topics and discussing actual events, you are a few items short of a Happy Meal moron.
-
The media is a lamestream lie machine, even far-right RINO radicals know that. Their "gotcha" questions always lead to answers that are misconstrued.
Obama's just trying to keep them from skewing this story. If you want to know what's new with the BP spill, ask the White House. Gibbs will be reading the daily BP press release each day, keeping us all informed of the latest news.
;D
-
When WC actually closes, I will comment on it then.
So far, it is still open and nothing has happened.
Nothing. Just like the docs walking out.
Just like DMV Health Care.
Just like the End of Days you cry about.
Nothing has happened. Unlike you, I tend to prefer to discuss things that have merit and you know... actually a chance of happening. So I will leave the fear mongering, the bullshit, the hyperbole and the "GAY obsession" stories up to you fatty.
Just because you live in a delusional little world it doesn't mean everybody else cares to visit.

Right - so in your typical drug induced left wing utopia, you have to wait till the house burns down to tell the child not to play with matches. ::) ::)
Again - for the Nth time in this thread - why don't you at least make a token effort to defend the boy wonder you voted for in banning the press from covering this story?

Yeah, most of that is already blocked. I can access GB, but I don't. Normally I'm just way too busy. As for controversial, I don't know but I would guess something like MensHealth.com may qualify. There's a lot of interesting stuff on there, but there is also a lot of pics of sexy women not wearing a lot.
As to "who" decides, that one is easy. It's the senior IT management and there is no consistency from agency to agency. With DOD we can access facebook, my space, etc. But Youtube is blocked, etc.
We can access during breaks and lunch, but shouldn't be on it otherwise. Of course there is abuse, but not a lot that I know of (at least at DOD). The reason is because they take your access away from you if you abuse the policy. ALL your access. And if you can't access the system, you can't do your job and it's grounds for immediate termination.
